Elise stood next to a pond in the Griffith Residence’s huge garden, feeling the pleasant evening breeze blowing at her.

Just when she sat down on the bench, Jamie came out of nowhere and patted her shoulder before sitting beside her. “Boss, did you come here to hide?”

She was a little surprised to find him here. “Why are you here?”

He shrugged his shoulders and answered, “My old man has something else to attend to, so he sent me here.” The Keller Family also had a high status in the city while also having a business relationship with the Griffith Family, so it wasn’t a surprise that his family received an invitation. “By the way…” He looked around and purposely lowered his voice. “Alexander’s people have stopped looking for you, so they probably won’t be looking for you anytime soon.”

“I hope so. From now on, I want you to reject any offer for me to join a car race no matter the price.”

“Don’t worry, Boss. I understand.” After that, he stood up and said, “I’m going inside now. We shouldn’t be seen together.”

Elise hummed and he quickly went inside.

However, the moment he left, another unwanted visitor came over to her. It was none other than Ashlyn.

With a bright smile, she walked over to Elise. “Congrats for winning the Math Olympiad, Elise.”

Elise was not close with her, so she politely replied, “Thank you.”

However, Ashlyn smiled and sat next to her. “Actually, I understand your concerns. You come from a poor family in the countryside, so you think that it is impossible for you to marry into the Griffith Family solely based on your identity even though you are lucky enough to gain Grandpa Griffith’s appreciation. That is why you work hard on your studies because it is the only way for you to gain any status. Am I right?”

Listening to her, Elise remained emotionless as she neither agreed nor refuted her comments.
